Big game for Reggie over his former team. And thoroughly outplaying his former OKC teammates Russel Westbrook and James Harden. He's had many battles with Westbrook in the past, he's had disagreements about his role/minutes/contract in OKC back then.

anyone that calls those vet\league min signings "the worst of the offseason" isn't worth listening to, no matter the sport

Hollinger called it the worst move of the offseason by any team. This is the same guy who called the KCP trade a salary dump that makes the Nuggets worse. What a fucking clown. Him and Nate Duncan.

There's a specific kind of sports analyst that breaks into the industry by innovating in the analytics game (whether applying them better or creating new useful ones), but as time goes on, thinks that they're building experience so they can just rely on their gut and eye test. And that is not how that works.

Ehh you could argue it’s a bit pointless bc he probably won’t do anything come playoff time or isn’t reliable. But the nuggets are of course aware of that and his abilities at this point. Resigning him is both predictable and not a risk. Nuggets don’t have much to work with money wise in general and are simply looking to fill the back up pg spot so keeping him doesn’t rock the boat. It would be nice to have some great six man but If they really could’ve done better then him then they would have.

Quit making shit up. I never said "of course it was a great idea" or anything like that. My issue is with clowns like Hollinger and Duncan spending entire segments ripping on a 2-year $10 million signing like it was going to make or break the Nuggets season.
